To MPROBE… and beyond! MPI_ARECV Squyres and Goodell Madrid, September 2013 Last edit: v Aug 2013

MPROBE Typical use: – Mprobe to discover unknown message – Allocate space for the message – Mrecv to actually receive the message But: – There is no request-based version – Can’t TEST* or WAIT* for unknown-sized message in conjunction with other known messages

Why not collapse that? MPI allocates the receive buffer – MPI_Arecv(source, tag, comm, &status) – MPI_Iarecv(source, tag, comm, &request) – Allows receipt of unknown-sized messages in array TEST/WAIT functions When the receive completes, get the buffer: – MPI_Status_get_buffer(status, &buffer) Later, MPI_Free_mem(buffer)

Assumptions Received message is self-describing – (this is an application issue) Possibly also use MPI_GET_ELEMENTS[_X] and/or MPI_GET_COUNT[_X]

Other common workarounds 1.Post larger receive than necessary – Potentially wastes space – Not always possible 2.Send 2 messages: a) size, b) actual message – Incur latency cost 3.Application based long-message rendezvous – Complex application logic

ARECV scenario: pre-posted T=0: MPI_Arecv posted T=1: matching message arrives T=2: matched to pre-posted envelope T=3: notices that it’s an ARECV – malloc() a buffer / get a freelisted buffer / etc. – Only happens if the match is an ARECV – Bonus: May be able to give network buffer back to caller Allows rendezvous to occur “immediately”

ARECV scenario: unexpected T=0: message arrives T=1: no pre-posted match is found T=2: buffers unexpected message, puts on unexpected list T=3: matching MPI_Arecv is posted T=4: finds match on unexpected queue – May be able to give unexpected buffer directly to MPI_ARECV (vs. another malloc+memcpy)
